Abstract: A method for displaying images on a head-mounted display (HMD) device that compensates for a user's vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) response. The displayed HMD image is compensated for predicted eye position such that the displayed image stays centered on the fovea of the eye, during transient eye movement caused by head motion, resulting in better display readability, discernment and cognitive processing.

Abstract: An augmented reality system is provided and a method for controlling an augmented reality system are provided. The augmented reality system, for example, may include, but is not limited to a display, a memory, and at least one processor communicatively coupled to the display and memory, the at least one processor configured to generate image data having a first resolution at a first rate, store the generated image data in the memory, and transfer a portion of the generated image data having a second resolution to the display from the memory at a second rate, wherein the second rate is faster than the first rate and the second resolution is smaller than the first resolution. This dual rate system then enables a head-tracked augmented reality system to be updated at the high rate, reducing latency based artifacts.

Abstract: An improvement to computing systems is introduced that allows a hardware controller to be configured to time partition a shared system resource among multiple processing elements, according to one embodiment. For example, a memory controller may partition shared memory and may include processor-accessible registers for configuring and storing a rate of resource budget replenishment (e.g. size of a repeating arbitration window), a time budget allocated among each entity that shares the resource, and a selection of a hard or soft partitioning policy (i.e. whether to utilize slack bandwidth). An additional feature that may be incorporated in a main-memory-access time-partitioning application is an accounting policy to ensure that cache write-backs prompted by snoop transactions are charged to the data requester rather than to the responder. Additionally, an arbiter may prioritize requests from particular requesting entities.

Abstract: Communications systems architecture using a single shared resource bus to interconnect a plurality of subsystems each handling information having a first predetermined importance level and an error detect wrapper for encoding information to and from each such subsystem to detect errors in transmission along the shared resource bus. A heartbeat monitor is also provided for use in those subsystems handling information having a second predetermined level of importance to disable the subsystem if an error occurs within the subsystem.
